Pop rock. Just because the Japanese used western music in yet another pretentious cartoon doesn't make the western music jpop. Jpop didn't even freaking exist when Roundabout was written.

"Modern J-pop has its roots in traditional Japanese music, but significantly in 1960s pop and rock music, such as The Beatles and The Beach Boys, which led to Japanese rock bands such as Happy End fusing rock with Japanese music in the early 1970s.[1] J-pop was further defined by new wave groups in the late 1970s, particularly electronic synthpop band Yellow Magic Orchestra and pop rock band Southern All Stars.[2] Eventually, J-pop replaced kayōkyoku ("Lyric Singing Music", a term for Japanese pop music from the 1920s to the 1980s) in the Japanese music scene.[3] The term was coined by the Japanese media to distinguish Japanese music from foreign music, and now refers to most Japanese popular music."

Music doesn't retroactively change genres, although I suppose you could place bands like Rage Against the Machine and Faith No More in the nu-metal genre. (But frankly I find the idea that Yes is a jpop band insulting on their behalf)

(Expect my ratings tomorrow. Teaser: Heavenly Star is absolutely shocking.)
